[[File:Philip Adams (I2padams).jpg|thumb|220x220px|''Philip Adams'']] '''PhilipPhillip Joseph Adams''' (born on April 21, 1994, in Sydney, Australia) is the host, director, and preparer of operating systems for the [[OSFirstTimer]] YouTube channel. He is also the creator of the time-travel indie hacking game ''Histacom'' and the make-your-own OS game ''Shift OS''. He comes from and currently lives in Tasmania, Australia with his parents [[Diana Adams|Diana]] Adams and''' '''[[Ben Adams|Ben]] Adams and his younger sister [[Jasmine Adams|Jasmine]] Adams. He lived with his family in an apartment in Sydney, Manly, until January 21st, 2018, when they moved into a house in Hobart, Tasmania with him.
 
PhilipPhillip also edits for a fitness company located in Sydney, Australia. Some elements he includes in the videos for the company are also included in OSFirstTimer videos as well. One example of that would be the ''lower thirds'', which are the introduction slides/blocks with descriptive text, appearing mainly on the bottom of videos/documentaries.
 
He currently uses a Mwave Custom Built PC (elaborated below) as his main computer, a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 as his secondary computer and a Samsung Galaxy S10+ (8GB RAM and 128GB storage space) as his phone.

==Early life==
As a child, PhilipPhillip loved playing the educational game ''Math Blaster: Episode 1 - In Search ''of ''Spot'' in math class. After asking his mum, he got his own computer at the age of 7 so he could play ''Math Blaster'' at home. Windows XP had just been released in Australia, and so the computer came pre-installed with XP.
 
Diana and PhilipPhillip tried getting ''Math Blaster'' at the shop, but couldn't find it. PhilipPhillip, upset, bought some other educational games. After playing the games, he quickly got bored. As PhilipPhillip did not have the Internet at the time, he decided to explore other parts of XP, like the screensavers, games and help articles. He was amazed at the seemingly unlimited potential of his computer, even without the internet.
 
PhilipPhillip spent years exploring Windows XP, until sometime in 2007 when he got the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Screen_of_Death Blue Screen of Death] (BSoD). His computer soon stopped working, so he had to get a new one. He bought the computer the day Windows Vista was released in Australia, so the new computer came pre-installed with Vista.
 
On May 12, 2008, Philip started a project named [[Massive Archive]], in which he tries to vlog almost anything every day, including his thoughts, activities and family-related things. He started uploading some of these vlogs in early 2015, but before that, he did not have the intention of making it public. In February 2019, he even decided to do a series named ''OSFT Archive'' on the channel [[OSFT Historic VLogs]]. It is a summary/commentary series of the vlogs contained in the archive, where Philip compares his past and present self and points out other differences and ''bad/unprofessional'' things. The series' episodes represent each month since the beginning of the archive (e.g.: ''Episode 1 - May 2008, Episode 2 - June 2008, etc.'').

He learned about RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) at school, and a little while later, he got it. For a while, he stayed away from the computer as it hurt his fingers and wrote a couple of books until he read an online article about TMS, a possible cure for RSI. He then made Let's Plays on a new YouTube channel called AstralPhaser. He was originally going to call this channel RSIGamer, but that would remind him of RSI. On this channel, he played games such as Minecraft.
